| Obverse description | Laureate and bearded bust of Emperor Nero facing right, rendered in high relief characteristic of Julio-Claudian imperial portraiture. The laureate wreath is rendered in fine detail with individual leaves visible against the hair. The emperor's youthful features display the characteristic thick neck and early beard associated with his middle reign coinage. The surrounding legend reads NERO CAESAR AVGVSTVS, disposed around the periphery of the flan within a beaded border, the lettering deeply and crisply struck. |
